The book is finished YAY!! I like the way it end because Annie and Sini didnt get hurt.I am happy that Annie and Sini met up with there dad and Rachel. Also I am happy because all the Jews were free.Good thing Rachel and Sini were able to find jobs.

So If your starting at 134 Sini and Annie are still at the Oostervelds!!!!!But at the end they get to go home and re-unite with their father and sister. I like the Canadians alot because they were the ones who freed Holland!:)I wqonder if they'll Visit Johan, Djente, and Opoe. I wonder if Opoe will die soon. But over all I love this book because it's of a girl who keeps hope throught a 4 year period and she is very strong and brave and as my group said.....PATIENCE IS KEY!!!!!:)

fffiiinnnalllyyy, action. after all this time only one action scene. when the bakery blew. oh man that got me shacking. but after all that war, in an action less book the canadians came. I liked whan everyone was celebrating. when sini jumped on the tank and kissed the canadian solder. if the hole entire book had action the book would be a four even four and a half star book. I say it is a three to three and a half star book. But I cant amagin two years of war and only staying in three other houses. theris, mr.Hanicks, and opeas.

the upstairs room is very interesting. Twards the end when the Canadians freed holland it was good that they were safe and everyone was free and Sini and Annie found their dad and Rachel and they got jobs to start their new life! This was a very good book.

so, the book was gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood.

Okay this isn't towards the end it's about like kinda in the missle of last weeks reading but.....I think it ws really dumb and mean of Djente to make Annie and Sini go to the underground hidding place at the Hannick's house!JUst because Johan is gone for a few days she starts spazing out and makes them go to the Hannick UNDERGROUND, COLD, DARK hidding place!!!!That's just meant, stupid, and un thoughtful in her part....but that's just my opinion.IM sorry if you don't agree and think it's mean but i think that ws just mean of Djente!

I think the blogging was a pretty good idea. I mwan but people just say random stuff though just to say it and it's kinda annoying. So there's the bad thing. BUt i like it ju st because it's different from just talking,....which is fine it's just different though. But ever all I guess I would say blogging is pretty good.:)

I really liked the book, i would recomend it to next years 6th graders, the book is good because it dosnt have too much action but it has some to get the reader thinking about what will happen next. The book also has some swearing here and there, but over all it was pretty good :)

i LOVED THE BLOGGING.we dont need to all talk at once and I can know tipe like three words a minut faster ever sence of the blogging. so that is why, and we get out off english, wich isnt borring just stresful. this is kyle elderkin with my final 6th grade blog. by!!!!!!!!!!

Directions

Each week, you will be required to respond to the the section of reading you have completed. Include questions, reactions, favorite parts, etc. You then must respond to what each of your other lit circle members wrote as well. Be sure to provide possible answers to your team members questions. Ask them questions about their reactions to the reading. Have fun!

Example Response

John Smith: Wow! I am so interested in this book. Could you imagine being orphaned at our age and having to be able to survive on our own? Crispin has no other relatives to take him in, and it sounds like he is not very accepted in his village. I wonder why John Aycliff is after him? Life was so different during this time period. People could be killed for doing what we consider very minor things. Life sure was difficult. I am curious to know what you guys think about this book. Do you think Crispin will stay in Stromford or run away? How will he escape John Aycliff?
